Bookies have predicted that Rylan Clark is facing high odds of being sacked from This Morning after his comments sparked an influx of Ofcom complaints. The ITV daytime show, which the Essex-born presenter was co-hosting, was hit with 576 Ofcom complaints after he issued a blunt statement on the UK’s small boats crisis.
Rylan said on live on air last week: “This country is built on immigration. Legal immigration — a lot of the nurses, the doctors that have saved my mum’s life have come over here from other countries. They’re living a great life, they’re paying into this tax system, they’re helping this country thrive. I find it absolutely insane that all these people are risking their lives coming across the Channel. And when they get here, it does seem, and I think this is why a lot of Labour voters as well are saying there’s something wrong, it feels like, ‘Welcome, come on in’. That’s the narrative we’re being fed. Here’s the iPad. Here’s the NHS in reception of your hotel. Here’s three meals a day. Here’s a games room in the hotel. Have a lovely time and welcome.”
